00:01.500 --> 00:04.820
Moment . And as you guys probably know ,

00:04.829 --> 00:07.449
we have two ribbon cuttings today .

00:07.559 --> 00:09.880
We're being very ambitious to celebrate

00:09.890 --> 00:12.789
National Space Day . This is made

00:12.800 --> 00:14.989
possible due to a grant that we were

00:15.000 --> 00:17.780
able to receive from the Tennessee Arts

00:17.790 --> 00:19.950
Commission . We were able to partner

00:19.959 --> 00:22.299
with the Tola Homa Fine Arts Center and

00:22.309 --> 00:24.829
get some very talented artists out here .

00:25.040 --> 00:26.818
So a round of applause for them

00:29.909 --> 00:32.076
long time ago , way back in a galaxy ,

00:32.076 --> 00:34.409
far , far away , somewhere back in 1989

00:34.419 --> 00:36.641
time frame or so , I got a chance to go

00:36.641 --> 00:38.808
to space camp . And when I got there ,

00:38.808 --> 00:41.030
I realized , oh , wow , there are a lot

00:41.030 --> 00:43.197
of other kids just like me and oh , by

00:43.197 --> 00:45.419
the way , science is cool . Engineering

00:45.419 --> 00:48.369
is cool and math is cool . So I'm

00:48.380 --> 00:50.436
really impressed with the museum . I

00:50.436 --> 00:52.602
think it's cool , the Science Center .

00:52.602 --> 00:54.713
So I'm really pleased to get a chance

00:54.713 --> 00:54.049
to be here for the ribbon cutting for

00:54.060 --> 00:54.450
this .

01:01.810 --> 01:05.470
Happy you are about to enter space

01:05.480 --> 01:07.129
stations beta ,

01:09.910 --> 01:10.480
right ?

01:16.790 --> 01:19.239
So like the space mural , this was a

01:19.250 --> 01:22.040
lot of planning . This one was made

01:22.050 --> 01:24.930
possible through a very special partner

01:24.940 --> 01:26.970
of ours who has supported us a few

01:26.980 --> 01:29.202
different times in a bunch of different

01:29.202 --> 01:31.440
ways . National Aerospace Solutions .

01:31.449 --> 01:33.505
We do have some representatives from

01:33.505 --> 01:35.671
them here . Thank you for helping fund

01:35.671 --> 01:38.580
this brand new exhibit and there's lots

01:38.589 --> 01:40.700
of different things to explore as you

01:40.700 --> 01:41.129
go around .
